X3 nearly new values

[JM1962]

How come BMW advertises 1 year old X3s for more, or just as much as a similarly specified new one. I would have expected 1 year old cars to sell at a hefty discount compared to new.

Because they can sell more than they can make. It's a big success, although there'll be some idiot along in a minute to claim otherwise.

Cayenne is the same, Q5 not far off.

The Q5 has been on the Market over 3 years and are still holding their value very well !

I would have thought that the Evoque would have had more of an impact on Q5 values but nothing yet.
